Q: What's your take on this evolution, Gunny? A: Frankly, Susan, if this is your best... maybe you oughta keep it to yourself...

Re: Commando Hero I know this may be pimping a competing company's product, but I would seriously consider having a look at GURPS Special Ops, if you can get your hands on a copy. It actually has a list of undesired Disadvantages/Complications that would not be appropriate for a SpecOps character.

Re: M.H.I. Coastal Rangers Monster Hunter Template Another two books you could check out for inspiration: Dark Champions -- Lots of cinematic skills and the like, as well as a decent armory listing. Urban Fantasy -- the Danite Hunter package would be great to check out for further inspiration.

Re: M.H.I. Coastal Rangers Hey, nice to see you here. I'm the one who suggested Hero 6e to you on your site.

Re: Genre-crossover nightmares Two Week's Burn Notice Bulletproof Monk (The Tale of an OCD/pan-phobic martial arts master...) GI Joe vs the Volcano The Last House (MD) on the Left The Rockford X-Files Okay, some of these are reaching for it...

Re: Ancient Ninja: Separating the Men from the Myth And everyone knows, we're always up for some antics Or would it be shenanigans? No pistol-whipping please...

Re: A Modern League of Extroardinary Gentlemen Since no one has mentioned him... Jack Reacher (main character in the books by Lee Child), to fill in the investigator/muscle role. Former MP major in the 110th Special Investigations Unit. Only non-marine to win the Wimbledon Cup sniper competition.

Re: Best, Worst and Strangest Police Cars Kind of reminds me of an episode of Top Gear where the lads had like 1000 Pounds to purchase a used car and convert it into a cheap police car. Here are the three items... This is a Fiat, complete with Bodicea-inspired wheel spikes to take out the wheels of another car. Built by Jeremy Clarkson. A Suzuki Grand Vitara, complete with lots of blue flashies and a spiked tire trap on the front. Built by Richard Hammond. Lexus sedan done up with police colors, and an ice cream van-inspired siren. Built by James "Captain Slow" May. Obviously, none of the cars made the mark in the show, but still... was fun to watch... ---------------- Now playing: The Cure - Faith via FoxyTunes

Re: Magesight Right, I couldn't remember it at the time I was writing this... me, the guy who has avidly read all the books from the beginning. You can tell what kind of week it has been... Then again, I think I was suffering a migraine when I wrote the original post.

Re: Magesight Third Eye was also the name of a street drug in Storm Front that did pretty much the same thing, but geared more toward the "mundanes" on the street. I'm getting a better idea on how to construct this ability... but, keep the ideas flowing.

Re: Magesight Thanks for the ideas so far, guys... keep 'em coming!

Okay, here's what I'm trying to create, and I'm not sure if it's been done before. I don't have a copy of Ultimate Mystic as yet (planning to order it), so I don't know if it's in there. Basically, here's the gist of what I'm trying to create... In the Dresden Files books, the Wizards have this ability to look into a man's true soul, true nature through eye contact. That's what I'm trying to build out, for those who are familiar with the books. I'm also trying to writeup another psychic version of the same, uncontrolled via touch (doesn't always activate, mind you, randomly works). That one may be easier.

Re: Mallory and Benfield's Second Hand Emporium (Urban Fantasy)

Re: Urban/Modern Fantasy Questions I ran an adaptation of Bureau 13 (modern, all over the USA) using Danger International. The major thing that I did that wasn't Hero-based was using B13 mechanics for magic and psi. Current adaptation (simply entitled "Thirteen" and based more along the lines of Torchwood, in a sense) uses all Hero mechanics.

Re: Horror Hero Resources Just realized that there is no link to the old version materials, just the 2nd edition that they're working on...
